Coffee and breakfast go together like... well, coffee and breakfast. It could perhaps be one of the best combinations ever invented. That being said, here are a few coffee and breakfasts that I've had over the past few weekends.
By the way, does that coffee not look amazing? It looks so creamy and delicious. Our kitchen table makes for a great backdrop for food and drink photos, if I do so so myself.
This roast is called Pacific Pipeline by the Kicking Horse Brand that I've purchased a few times in the past. The bag says that it's tropical and exotic but it just tasted like coffee to me.
Here's a close up of the beans... you can see that it's a mix of dark and medium roasts together.
This day I made my wife a cheese omelet with tomato and yellow peppers and a balsamic glaze garnish. Looks nice, right?
That day I had egg, cheese and tomato on a toasted everything bagle. It was quite good as well. Below is another angle to enjoy.
Another day, another delectable looking coffee. I made a cappuccino on this occasion and my wife made breakfast. I can never create coffee art, anytime that I try. I just can't figure it out it seems. Maybe I'm using the wrong type of cup?
I gave up on trying this day and just spooned the foam on top. The coffee tasted great, which was the most important thing, but it still looked pretty fancy as well, in its own way.
My wife made a delicious breakfast that day, a real Canadian classic of eggs, bacon and pancakes. We don't have big breakfasts like that often, so its almost like a treat for special occasions.
We rarely buy bacon anymore either. It tastes delicious but its often ridiculously expensive and half the time its just all fat or tastes like chemicals. The bacon was on sale at the grocery store $12 from $20 so we bought some for the first time in a long time. It ended up being about 80-90% pure fat but evidently fried fat tastes incredible, soooo...worth it? I thought so that day as a treat, but only because of the sale price. $20 for sliced fat is absurd in my opinion.
My wife also made blueberry pancakes that day. They were also delicious so the breakfast was pretty amazing in the end.
"Hey, where'd that blueberry come from?"
Oh yes, yes, that's right. I dropped a bag of frozen blueberries when putting them back in the freezer. They went everywhere as you can see and made a huge mess as they melted all over the floor.
I took a photo for Hive (as one does) before getting on my hands and knees to pick them up. There is no point in crying over spilled blueberries....
That about does it for this round of coffee and breakfasts.
